Good morning,

Facebook has a surprise for all couples official on the social media site. 

The next time you and your partner click the “In a Relationship” feature, a message will automatically pop up and hearts will flood the screen. The person will also be at the top of who is active on Facebook, so you will know every time they log onto the platform. The heart-eyes emoji will also be the designated conversation emoji to celebrate the new relationship. 

The new features were announced just in time for Valentine’s Day, so make it official and start chatting.
